Gluten Free Breakfast Cereal & Oatmeals

When I became gluten-free I was so sad because it meant I had to give away all my favorite oatmeal products. Thankfully someone has decided to revive oatmeal by making it gluten-free and begun a movement in creating delicious breakfast cereals. We no longer have to sigh when everyone else whips out their oatmeal or favorite cereals. Since I was so excited about the turn of events in gluten-free breakfast foods, I just had to share! I hope anyone who is gluten-free or knows someone struggling with becoming gluten-free will find some help in this squidoo.

I love extreme fruit and granola but i also have a passion for these flavors as well. Generally they are pretty pricy in the grocery store so consider ordering them to save money. I know. The gluten-free lifestyle is expensive!

I have to say I really like a lot of the Bob's Red Mill products. Try some out for yourself!

Are you an 'instant' or 'made from scratch' oatmeal eater?

Along with Peanut Butter Panda Puffs, Envirokidz has a great line of other childhood favorites. Try them all and see how they compare to your memories of the old days.

I came across this oatmeal in the middle of nowhere meaning South Dakota. How is it such a fabulous product was there and not in the large city where I live? I have no idea but I love the taste and texture. You truly feel like it's regular oatmeal and they do a great job with the flavors. I absolutely despise instant oatmeal where they skimp on flavor. No fear here. They do a wonderful job ensuring every delicious bite is filled with maple and brown sugar flavor!

Have a favorite flavor? Mine is typically anything involving maple sugar or cinnamon. If you are not a fan of that flavor, create your own with original or try apple & cinnamon!

Chex has joined up with gluten-free to make our lives a little tastier. Order through Amazon or head to a local grocery-store to pick up a flavor or five.

When you want to stay away from the sugary cereals then try Crunchy Nut Flax. The name sounds downright unappetizing (that's what I initially thought) but the cereal actually makes an excellent backdrop when you add blueberries, strawberries etc. I also have put honey (a sugar no-no) on to give a sweet flavor or just eat it plain.

Enjoy Life cereals are more of the adult version of breakfast (no peanut butter panda puffs here). Their cereals are more along the nutritional side and far less sugary. Since the change in diet, I have moved towards Enjoy Life cereals as they are friendly to my diet. Even if you are dedicated to sugary cereals, give the Enjoy Life brand a try. You never know, you may end up finding a new love!
